Vista Compatibility Report
Posted: Sat 03 Feb, 2007 9:57 am
I've delayed the post until everything has been checked extensively, but now I can assure it: Orphalese Tarot and OT Share work smooth and nice under Windows Vista (Home Premium Edition).
Some time ago I tested Orphalese under an irregular Vista Ultimate copy and everything was in order. But on Wednesday I installed my new license for Home Premium, and I intend to work with Vista in the next years, so I crossed my fingers and went for it. The official Vista compilation is different from the pirated copy you can get on the Internet, and there's some differences on the OS. I was expecting trouble with the P2P, since network security has been really improved on Vista, but after giving the needed permissions, the whole thing started to work as a charm. I can see other users and download decks, but I'd like to get confirmation from other users if they can see and get my shared decks. Maybe the Vista Firewall needs some tweaking...
If your machine is up-to-date, I highly recommend the Vista install. Not only because is shiny, new and pretty, but also because is a pleasure to work with it, and the extra security is a nice thing in these scam-and-phising days on the Internet. Best.
